Education
Decision Made
28 Years Ago
Register Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, D. C. —The
United States Commission on
Civil Rights has released the
flret in a sertee of reports
commemorating the Brown vs.
Board of Education decision
of 20 years ago.
The first report, entitled
for gifted and talented chil-
dren."
His proposals resulted from
a class action suit that the
NAACP filed In August, 1972,
In behalf of several parents
against Community School
Board 21 and the school chan-
cellor. Last November, Fed-
eral Judge Jack B. Weinstein
upheld the NAACP’s charges
and subsequently appointed the
“sj?ecial masters" to prepare
desegregation plans.
NAACP Assistant General
Counsel James I. Meyerson is
in charge of the case. The
present hearings before Judge
Weinstein began Wednesday,
July 10, when Dr. Dodson tes-
tified. Dr. Clark testified on
July 17.
Other objections that Dr.
Clark raised were that the
Special Master’s report:
--Would desegregate Mark
Twain In terms of voluntary
compliance by whites.
--"Panders to and reinforces
the Irrational fears of the white
majority."
--Reinforces "Irrational
fears” of whites about school
desegregation by unfairly
raising the spectre of safety
and crime.
“Twenty Years After Brown:
The Shadows of the Past,"
traces the historical back-
ground of the Brown decision.
Subsequent reports will discuss

Impact In the fields of education,

"On the 20th anniversary of
Brown vs. Board of Education,”
said the commlsson In the first
report’s preface, “It seems,
appropriate for the U.S. Com-
mission on Clvl Rights to
commemorate the Supreme
court’s decision with an ex-
amination of civil rights
progress between 1954 and 1974.
“We wish to honor Brown by
showing that It Is a decision
which continually affects one
of the most vital areas In the
life of our nation. W# wish to

WASHINGTON, D C.--Joseph
N. Cooper, 27, has been named
chief of advertising at ACTION,
the federal volunteer service
agency, ACTION director Mike
Balzano announced.
Three years ago a New York
marketing magazine referred to
Cooper, then a New York City
advertising executive, as one
of the “Action People." Today
that Idiom takes another twist
as Cooper joins ACTION as head
of national media advertising
for the- agency’s Office of Re-
cruitment and Communications.
He will be In charge of re-
cruitment and public awarness
campaigns for the agency’s
domestic and Inter national pro-

tired Executives (SCORE), Ac-
tive Corps of Executive (ACE),

gram (RSVP), Senior Com-
panion program, ACTION Co-
operative Volunteers and Uni-
versity Year for ACTION.

where for the past three years
he was division manager of pub-
lic service advertising. He

porate advertising as well as
national and local promotion
of zip codes and early
Christmas mailings.
A native of Fort Lauderdale,
Fla., Cooper grew up In Brook-
lyn, N. Y, and received an
associate’s degree from New

torney’s office In New York

became an account executive
trainee with the marketing firm
of Foote. Cone and Beldlng. A
few months later he accepted an
account executive position with
Needham, Harper and Steers for
their Xerox client.
During the 1969-70 television
season, Cooper conceived and
hosted WPDC’s “Black Pride”
half-hour weekly Interview
show. TTie program was de-
signed to probe the problems
of being Black in a largely
white society.
Also In 1969, Cooper decided
to develop a museum of Black
history and culture because he
had not been able to find one
In New York. In less than
two years, his ambition was
realized and audio-visual ex-
hibits were available to schools
and other organizations.

sultant to the Cinerama Releas-
ing corporation where he man-
